Chapter 812: Unlimited Soul Points
Translator: La0o9 Editor: La0o9
Gu Qing Shan who was taking the Xie Qi Fiend King’s form roared.
Unlike the previous time he was in this Fiend Realm, he didn’t let the other party say any nonsense.
Several hundred flying swords dashed around the palace.Gu Qing Shan triggered his hand seal.
Sword Array [Tai Yi], initiated!
The sword-infused wind scattered and howled like mad in the vicinity of the palace.
A single breath’s worth of time later, the palace itself was erased.
All the structures, the fiend guards and devil subordinates, all of them vanished.
The ground was literally as flat as a mirror.
This was a wonder in and of itself.The evil creatures were in awe.
Only the Fiendess and the Cruel Bone Devil King were still standing in the air.
They looked down at the scene with heavy expressions.
Too strong.
The other party is too strong!
The Fiendess whispered: 『 Devil King, this bastard that came out of nowhere seems to be a bit powerful 』
The Cruel Bone Devil King glared intensely at Gu Qing Shan.
「 You are the true master of the Xie Qi Fiend Realm? 」he questioned.
Gu Qing Shan replied: “Of course I am, I left this place for him to look over. Who knew he was so much of an idiot, his death is deserved”
「 Then I’ll return this Fiend Realm to you and we’ll call this even 」the Cruel Bone Devil King said.
“You took over this place for so long, got so many benefits from it and now you want to just pack up and leave? Are you looking down on this King?” Gu Qing Shan sneered.
「 Then what do you want? 」
“I want the Elemental Roots of two worlds——- this Fiend Realm and your own Devil Realm, then I’ll let you leave alive”
The Cruel Bone Devil King was shocked and angrily refuted: 「 Damn it, you think I’m afraid of you!? 」
Hoh ——–
A breeze of wind blew past.
His four limbs were all erased by the wind, causing him to fall to the ground.
He wasn’t a match for Gu Qing Shan the last time, so after Gu Qing Shan improved by leaps and bounds, he was even less of an issue.
“One last chance” Gu Qing Shan coldly said.
Laying on the ground in front of Gu Qing Shan, the Cruel Bone Devil King said nothing and attempted to regrow his limbs.
But he fearfully found that his wounds wouldn’t close no matter what.
His blood, flesh, and even his miasma was constantly flowing out from his body.
I’m going to die.
「 I’ll give them to you! 」he shouted.
“Correct answer”
Saying so, Gu Qing Shan dispelled the effect of his [Bleed] card.
[Ability card: Bleed]
[When using this card, whenever you lacerate your enemy’s body with a sharp weapon, their internal matter and energy——- like blood, metal, mental power, spirit power and anything similar, will slowly drain from their body for a duration of 10 seconds]
—–just like the previous time, under the coercion of an overwhelming difference in strength, the Cruel Bone Devil King unwillingly gave up the Elemental Roots of two worlds.
“Very good, you may leave” Gu Qing Shan said.
The Cruel Bone Devil King stared closely at him, chanted an incantation to open a warp gate of light.
「 We’re leaving 」he told the Fiendess.
The Fiendess didn’t move.
The Cruel Bone Devil King glared at her.
The Fiendess smiled sweetly: 『 Yes, Devil King. Let me help you 』
She supported the Cruel Bone Devil King, then abruptly pulled out a dagger from inside her chest and lopped off the Devil King’s head.
The gate of light instantly faded.
The Fiendess slowly brought the Devil King’s head to Gu Qing Shan and respectfully knelt down.
She raised the Devil King’s over her head, smiled seductively towards Gu Qing Shan and spoke in a sweet voice: 『 New ruler of the Xie Qi Fiend Realm and Cruel Bone Devil Realm, I would like to present the head of your enemy and surrender myself to you 』
Gu Qing Shan stared down at the Fiendess.
It truly must be said, this was a considerably beautiful female fiend. Not only was her face quite delicate, her body and gestures were also exuding an air of seductiveness that constantly drew the gaze of any observer.
Gu Qing Shan was silently puzzled.
——-I killed her too fast the previous time so I didn’t notice.
This Fiendess seems to have quite the background.
Having lived in the Wraith Realm and fought a few battles here the previous time, Gu Qing Shan knew about the three most powerful Evil Kings, so he could already guess some of the truth.
This Fiendess seems to be a disciple of ‘that’ Fiend King.
After all, she’s the only one who practiced the art of seduction.
“What do you desire from me?” Gu Qing Shan questioned.
The Fiendess lowered her head and spoke with both shyness and anxiety: 『 I vow to stay by your side and follow your every order, o’ powerful Fiend King 』
“Very well” Gu Qing Shan nodded.
『 You would take me in? 』the Fiendess raised her head in joy.
She threw the severed head that was ruining the atmosphere away, knelt down on both knees, inched forward on them to approach Gu Qing Shan.
“Indeed, I have an order that I need you to follow right now” Gu Qing Shan replied.
『 Please go ahead, this one has offered herself to you 』the Fiendess said sweetly.
She licked her lips seductively with her pale white tongue.
As long as you were male, you’d instantly understand her gesture.
Gu Qing Shan looked down at her: “I said I wanted to let the Cruel Bone Devil King go, so tell me, why did you kill him off?”
The Fiendess froze.
Gu Qing Shan continued: “You may die now”
Sha——-
His sword flash.
The Fiendess was chopped into numerous pieces, then further swept away by the sword-infused wind into nothingness.
Countless clicks of the tongue and regretful sighs came from all over.
However, most of the fiends and devils here had rationally lowered their voices.
This fiend was certainly powerful enough for them to respect.
But the most terrifying thing about him was that, not only he killed his own younger brother without hesitation, but he also didn’t forgive a seductress like the Fiendess for going against his order, truly merciless and cruel.
The evil creatures couldn’t grasp what was on his mind.
———which meant he was an unpredictable and dangerous factor.
At this time, Gu Qing Shan turned back and looked at the crowd of evil creatures.
“Scatter” he said.
The evil creatures hurriedly went their own ways.
In just a few moments, not a single fiend or devil could be seen within a radius of several miles.
Only now did Gu Qing Shan look at the [Kindling] UI.
New notifications appeared on the UI:
[This was a steamroll-type combat, the enemy’s soul essence was perfectly maintained, total amount absorbed—–]
[Your venerable Excellency, Kindling has detected you to have an extremely rare talent: Unlimited Soul Points]
[From now on, you will be able to absorb all Soul Points without wasting a single bit]
[Total Soul Points obtained: 28,000; sir]
[Right now, you must make the following decision:]
[Using EXP value to level up, or Soul Points value to level up]
[They are both mutually exclusive]
Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but chuckle.
EXP.
Or Soul Points.
What a familiar choice this was.
Gu Qing Shan purposefully asked: “Is there a difference?”
[Kindling] quickly replied: [You may use EXP to level up at any time, but if you choose Soul Points then you must complete a corresponding Quest to unlock this function]
[Kindling suggests that you use Soul Points to level up, since you have the rare talent of Unlimited Soul Points, using Soul Points as fuel to increase your strength is the most appropriate and fitting path for Your Excellency]
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised.
Ah?
Why is the [Demon King Order] acting so sincere? It even suggested it considering my circumstances.
Gu Qing Shan agreed: “Good, then I choose to use Soul Points to level up”
A new Quest appeared on the [Kindling] UI:
[Issuing function unlocking Quest]
[Quest description: Obtain enough Soul Points to help the System activate the Soul Points level up mode]
[Quest objective: Please collect another 72,000 Soul Points for a total of 100,000 and use this to help Kindling activate the new level up mode]
[Quest reward: Soul Points level up mode]
[Special note: You have chosen the correct path and would definitely become the strongest existence through it, the System shares the same joy and honor]
After the lines of text faded away, a card appeared at the center of the UI.
The card depicted Gu Qing Shan wielding two swords while hovering in mid air
Lapis-grade Character Card: [Sword cultivator Gu Qing Shan]
Below this Character Card was a grey long bar, a bit similar to Soul Points value.
From the looks of it, this was to prepare for after the Soul Points level up mode was unlocked.
Gu Qing Shan silently nodded.
In comparison, the War God UI’s requirements were much higher, he needed to kill enemies stronger than himself, use Soul Points to comprehend his own skills and advance, while the [Demon King Order]’s most outstanding point was its disregard of discretion, no matter if the enemy was weaker or stronger, as long as he can kill the enemy, he would be able to absorb the power inside their soul. This can easily shatter the determination within a person and turn them into a machine that only knows how to kill
Between the War God and the Demon King, one of them primarily tempers will and mental fortitude, while the other only craves power.
Seeing how it constantly tempers its user’s will and mental fortitude, the War God UI’s way of doing things seems to have a deeper meaning.
Although the War God System was no longer with him, Gu Qing Shan wouldn’t suddenly turn into a Demon King who only knew slaughter, so he wasn’t afraid of being changed by the [Demon King Order].
“100,000 Soul Points…”
Gu Qing Shan muttered and began to consider how to approach this Quest.
——–he would naturally not try to slaughter the weak evil creatures, he desired true combat instead.
Because of that, having armor was essential.
Gu Qing Shan then remembered the reward of the first Quest——–
The armor Card.
Seems like [Kindling] had already prepared for the following battles.
Gu Qing Shan drew the third card.
This was the 3rd Lapis-grade Card he obtained after [Bleed] and [True Crimson Demon Spear].
